AMETHYST1

This dynamic cluster of Amethyst has crystals directed in several different directions, making it eye-catching. There is a bit of "smoke," in the primary crystal, which adds additional character to the piece. Crystals from this area are often misidentified as being from "Brandberg, Namibia," which is actually a deposit within a nature preserve in the same district. The Goboboseb mountains, in the Erongo region from which this cluster was found, is know for its remoteness, as the nearest water source is over 35 kilometers away. Near the base of the cluster, are needles of hematite, which occur occasionally in Quartz from this deposit. It is in excellent condition, with only the back-projecting crystal having been broken in the pocket and rehealed.
